What's diff between these HID's and regular kits? Plus they should be able to give us a good discount on shipping if they all get shipped to one address.

Yes. I will work on the shipping and possibly cover it if everything comes directly to me and then I can delivery or meet up around the atlanta area

Details below

Link us to some info or examples of these Kits? Nitro's HID's are cheaper....

However as mentioned above, whats special about these?

Cheaper means Cheaper. Not necessarily Better Below for more details.

^ yea nitro's are cheaper.

Here is from who I will be working with I asked him all the specific questions you guys were asking.

Most of the kits on eBay/Cheaper Kits are the exact same despite their appearance. The company that makes all those ballast used 8 different cases that I know of. I know this because I used to buy some of their ballasts for a customer in Mexico. The problem with the ballasts is they draw a lot of current on startup which will cause the ballast to flicker or die.

The bulbs are typically decent. Most those kits use bulbs made by one company in particular. They sell me some of my Hi / Low bulbs (they don’t make them).

The owners of these two companies are (were) working together and pretty much killing the market because they wanted to move to Canada and start distribution. The plan was to do this and raise prices again so they will be the manufacturer and retailer. I don’t know what happened between them but that bulb factory has stopped buying those ballasts. I do know there was a large order of ballasts that was bad and the ballast manufacturer wouldn’t take them back so the bulb factory started looking elsewhere. The other rumor is the owner of the ballast factory is going to shut down and just move to Canada. They told us this and recommended we not buy those ballasts if we still did. Luckily, we only bought them for one customer on a request basis so we didn’t have anything to worry about.

The other big issue is the service. Our kits ship from the US and are delivered in 3-5 days. I know a lot of the eBay/Cheap kits say they are in the US but when they charge $35 for EMS shipping and that is the only method to ship it’s a sure sign that they are overseas. Most of these guys are small trading companies that come and go, typically it’s just one person. As much as I like my kits we do occasionally have a bad ballast or bulb. If you opt for a cheaper kit and have something go bad you will have to pay shipping to and from China to get it replaced. This will run at least $25 each way. If something we sell goes bad we cover shipping back to the customer. I need the defective part back before I can send replacements because a lot of time I get working ballasts back. If you have a bulb go bad with an cheaper kit you are stuck with getting a single bulb replaced and it won’t match the one you already have. This is why if you have a bad bulb we replace both of them.

Color selection: Not many of the guys, if any, offer the color selection that is available through me and who I am working with I stock all bulbs from 4300-12,000K and most bulbs from 3000K – 30,000K. Things like H4, H13, 9004 and 9007 I don’t stock in 3000K because they are driving bulbs only and my Hi / Low bulbs are only from 4300K – 12,000K for the same reason.

I hope this is what you were looking for.

If you guys want more info I can go into more detail.



I will be handling the dealings with the company but you will ALL get receipts and these are coming directly from Apexcone. You will get the warranty, you get both bulbs replaced if you have issues etc.

You choice is up to you. I obviously cannot force you to buy one or the other. However there are HUNDREDS of BMW owners on bimmerforums myself included with these kits and I have 50,000 miles on my kit and just put the kit in my e30 Pictures below.
